UNSPSC 85516430: Bypass right popliteal artery to popliteal artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass right popliteal artery to popliteal artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach. This surgical intervention or procedure is listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 as code 041M4ZL

UNSPSC 85516430 Bypass right popliteal artery to popliteal artery, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that nominally describes a specific surgical procedure, yet the recent state and local contract opportunities posted under this code do not solicit vascular surgery services or procedure-specific clinical deliverables. Instead, the opportunities tagged to this code cover occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for disability benefit determinations, pharmacy benefit management administration, temporary health professional staffing placement, surgical benefit carve-out programs, and emergency medical services for youth in custody — none of which align with the code's stated scope of a defined arterial bypass procedure. The mismatch reflects either a cataloging error in the source database or misapplication of the code by issuing procurement offices; the code shows little relevant recent activity for the procedure it nominally describes.

The issuing bodies represented in the tagged opportunities span state departments (Washington State Department of Transportation, on behalf of Washington State Ferries), county health systems and government agencies (Collier County Board of County Commissioners, County of Santa Clara Health System, Harris County Juvenile Probation Department), and municipalities (City of Phoenix Retirement Office, City of Long Beach). Geographic activity appears in Washington, Arizona, California, Florida, and Texas. Representative recent opportunities include the Washington State Department of Transportation's request for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 ferry locations, due October 9, 2026 (RFP); the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services and disability record review for public safety pension applicants, due October 16, 2026; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's solicitation to establish a qualified vendor pool for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories, due October 7, 2026. The code's misalignment with the procurement activity it captures suggests business development professionals should verify actual procurement intent directly with issuing bodies rather than relying on this code assignment.
